Privacy Policy

Last updated 11 November 2026

Who I am

Sweeper is made by Kerim Ezer, an independent developer based in England, United Kingdom ("I", "me"). I'm responsible for your information as described here. You can reach me at manajersinfo@gmail.com.

Your photos and videos

To help you clean up, Sweeper asks for permission to access your photo library. Everything it does with your photos happens on your phone:

• It shows your photos and videos so you can swipe through them.
• It works out file sizes, and makes small fingerprints of photos to find duplicates and similar shots.
• It keeps a list of what you kept and what's waiting in Review, plus your settings, in the app's storage on your phone.
• It deletes only what you choose, after you confirm in Review and in your phone's own confirmation dialog.

None of this is sent to me or anyone else. If your photos are stored in iCloud or Google Photos, your phone may download them from there to show them, which happens between your device and Apple or Google, not through me.

Purchases

Sweeper Premium is sold through the App Store or Google Play. Payment is handled entirely by Apple or Google, and I never see your payment details.

To check whether you have Premium, the app uses RevenueCat, a service that manages in-app purchases. RevenueCat receives:

• a random identifier created by the app (not your name, email or Apple or Google account),
• your purchase details, such as the plan, price, dates and the store's transaction ID,
• basic device and app information, such as the operating system and app version, country and language, and your IP address.

This is used only to provide Premium, restore your purchases and prevent fraud. RevenueCat is based in the United States and protects transfers of data from the UK with appropriate safeguards. Apple's and Google's handling of purchases is covered by their own privacy policies.

Notifications

If you pay for Premium and turn on cleanup reminders, the app schedules them on your phone. They aren't sent from a server, and you can turn them off in the app or in your phone's settings.

Ratings and sharing

When the app asks you to rate it or you choose to share it, your phone's own rating and sharing screens are used. I don't receive anything from them beyond what the App Store or Google Play shows publicly, such as published reviews.

Advertising (Google AdMob)

Free users can choose to watch a rewarded video ad to get extra swipes for the day. These ads are provided by Google AdMob. Premium users don't see ads, and ads are never shown unless you choose to watch one.

To show ads, measure them and prevent fraud, Google's ad software in the app may collect:

• your device's advertising identifier (IDFA on iPhone, Advertising ID on Android), only where you allow it,
• your IP address, which is used to estimate a general location,
• device and app information, such as the model, operating system version, app version and language,
• whether an ad was shown, watched or tapped, and diagnostic data.

Your photos and videos are never shared with Google or any ad partner.

Your choices

• On iPhone, your advertising identifier is used only if you allow it when the app asks for permission to track. You can change this at any time in Settings, then Privacy & Security, then Tracking.
• If you're in the UK, the EEA or Switzerland, the app asks for your consent with Google's consent form before personalised ads are shown. If you say no, Google may still show non-personalised or limited ads. You can change your choice at any time in Sweeper, under Settings, then Privacy choices.
• On Android, you can reset or delete your Advertising ID in your phone's settings.

Google handles this data under its own privacy policy. You can read how Google uses information from apps that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. Google may transfer data to the United States under appropriate safeguards, such as Standard Contractual Clauses or the EU–US Data Privacy Framework.

Legal basis

Under the UK GDPR and the EU GDPR:

• purchase information is processed because it's needed to provide what you've bought (contract), and to prevent fraud (legitimate interests),
• personalised ads and the use of device identifiers for ads rely on your consent,
• non-personalised ads, measuring ads and preventing ad fraud rely on legitimate interests.

How long information is kept

Information stored by the app on your phone stays there until you delete the app. RevenueCat keeps purchase records for as long as needed to provide your purchases and meet legal obligations. Google keeps advertising data under its own retention policies.

Your rights

If you're in the UK or the EU/EEA, you have rights under the UK GDPR and the EU GDPR to access, correct or delete your personal information, to restrict or object to how it's used, and to withdraw your consent at any time. Because I don't hold your photos or an account for you, most information can be removed by deleting the app. For purchase records, email me and I'll help through RevenueCat. To withdraw consent for ads, use Privacy choices in the app's Settings. If you're unhappy with how your information is handled, you can complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk or to your local data protection authority.

Children

Sweeper isn't directed at children under 13, and I don't knowingly collect information from them.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be published here with a new date.
